So as the hoopla surrounding The Apprentice dies down a thought occurred to me - it seems like most reality TV series are magnets for people to try and make themselves famous, but throughout this one there has been one name that has been conspicuously absent. I am of course talking about the person about whom Malcom S. Forbes said (at least according to her website):
"Donald Trump’s most towering achievement isn’t Trump Tower or Trump Casinos or any other of his dazzling great things and doings, it’s Ivana."
Yes ladies and gents, Ivana Trump has somehow been missed in this whole thing. You would think from the way she was made out in the press in the early 90's as a gold-digging bitch that she would be smack in the middle trying to get as much attention as possible, but she has been eerily quiet. As far as I can tell the only thing she has been up to is giving motivational speeches about being a mother - so the big question I ask is where has she been?

While I to have heard about the "racist" leanings of Donald Trump (i.e. no black people in the entire management team) when it comes down to it, Bill made better decisions and won fair and square.
